Your setup and lizards are way cool :) I would however worry a bit about them for example defecating on the tube heater causing a short circuit or the tail going between the spaces in the mesh and they getting burned.

Can see what your saying my friend! but its bean going for a year and no probs! the lizards dont really come by the tube heater buddy! and to be fair its never really on for that long as the 2 bulbs vertually get the air temp right!
But i can put some tinfoil or something over the top!
 
Hummmm...I dont think that would be such a good idea because that could prevent the heat from spreading evenly and the lizard claws would do a number on the sheet. What you could do is put the heater with a bigger outside cage besides the other you already have, in wire mesh (dont forget to soften the corners) and with a chunk of aluminium you can find free in any junk yard on top. That would prevent both burns and electrical issues :)
